Detecting and predicting spatial and interannual patterns of temperate forest springtime phenology in the eastern U.S. [PDF]
, 2002 We performed a diagnostic analysis of AVHRR-NDVI and gridded, temperature data for the deciduous forests of the eastern U.S., calibrating temperature accumulation model with satellite data for 1982–1993.

Soil Management Effects on Grapevine Water Uptake Depth in a Mediterranean Vineyard
European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 2, March–April 2026.Stable isotope evidence of vine water uptake depth under spontaneous cover crop and tillage. ABSTRACT In Mediterranean vineyards, soils are often managed with tillage or herbicides to limit weed growth and competition for resources. However, with rising concerns about water scarcity and climate change, cover crops are being reconsidered as sustainable ...

Shifting body weight-fecundity relationship in a capital breeder : maternal effects on egg numbers of the autumnal moth under field conditions [PDF]
, 2013 In the literature, various environmental factors are described as being capable of influencing the reproductive output of insect females irrespective of their body size. Still, female body size or weight is widely used as a proxy for fecundity.

Rethinking False Spring Risk [PDF]
Temperate plants are at risk of being exposed to late spring freezes. These freeze events - often called false springs - are one of the strongest factors determining temperate plants species range limits and can impose high ecological and economic damage.
